All alone in the bar sits the cowboy,
a glass of red eye in his hand.
He remembers when he was much younger
and when he
was a rodeo man.
He met her down at Maxine's Bar Room.
He took her and he loved
her that night.
He proposed and she loved him for fifteen sweet years.
But she's lit
out and she's nowhere in sight.
Oh cowboy,
oh cowboy, what can you do?
She's run off
and left you for somebody new.
The flame has gone out and you're left all alone.
So have
another drink,
cowboy, go home.
Have another drink, cowboy, go home.
There were times when you both used to laugh at her jokes.
Times when you both
used to cry.
She'd heal all your pain with one touch of her hand.
And she'd wipe
all the tears from your eyes.
Oh cowboy, oh cowboy,
what can you do?
She's run off
and left you for somebody new.
The flame has gone out and you're left all alone.
So have another drink, cowboy, go home.
Have another drink, cowboy, go home.
